	ksrvutil on Athena dumps core when I try to add a key to a new
keyfile, specified on the command line. This is at least true the
dialups, and my redhat-athena 5.2 machine -- I wasn't able to get to a
real workstation to try. I dug up an old redhat-athena 4.2 machine,
and ksrvutil worked fine. Here is a sample log (variations such as
using -k, using a wrong version number, no instance or realm,
etc. have no effect):

<jef@jef: /var/tmp> ksrvutil add -f keyfile
Name: jef
Instance: dialup
Realm: ATHENA.MIT.EDU
Version number: 5 
New principal: jef.dialup@ATHENA.MIT.EDU; version 5
Is this correct? (y,n) [y] 
Password: 
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The keyfile specified (which didn't exist before) ends up as a
zero-length file:

<jef@jef: /var/tmp> ls -la keyfile*
-rw-------   1 jef      mit             0 Aug 24 12:35 keyfile
-rw-------   1 jef      mit             0 Aug 24 12:35 keyfile.old
-rw-------   1 jef      mit             0 Aug 24 12:35 keyfile.work

Thanks.
